Last updated · 2026-10-28

These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of NinjaClips at ninjaclips.io. By creating an account, buying a subscription, submitting a file, listing an item, or otherwise using the service, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use NinjaClips.

NinjaClips is a trading name of NinjaClips Ltd, registered in England and Wales, company number 17477524. Registered office: Unit A, 82 James Carter Road, Mildenhall, IP28 7DE.

What NinjaClips is

NinjaClips has four parts, and different terms apply to each.

  • The index. A ranked reference of anime characters, together with links to edits and images that their creators published on other platforms. We store names, rankings, tags, links and descriptive data. We do not host that media.
  • The scene tools. Video processing that runs on files you supply. You provide the source, choose options, and receive outputs derived from your own file.
  • The marketplace. A place for sellers to list editing materials they produced themselves, and for buyers to purchase them.
  • Campaigns. Companies, artists and labels pay for edit campaigns, and editors on our paid promo list make and post the edits. See campaigns, for companies, song campaigns, for artists and labels and paid edits, for editors.

NinjaClips does not supply source media, does not grant you rights in anyone else's work, and does not promise that your use of any file or output is legally permitted.

Eligibility and account

You must be at least 16 years old, or the minimum age required in your country to use online services. You must provide accurate account and billing information, keep your credentials secure, and remain responsible for activity on your account. Accounts are for individual use unless we agree otherwise in writing.

Your files

The scene tools operate only on material you submit. You must hold the rights to it. By submitting a file you confirm that you own it, or that you have the licence, permission or other lawful basis needed to copy it, process it, and use the outputs for your intended purpose.

We do not review submissions for legal clearance, and we do not give legal advice about fair dealing, fair use, quotation, parody, platform policy or any similar doctrine. If you are not sure you hold the rights to a file, do not submit it.

You keep whatever rights you already have in what you submit. You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive licence to store, copy, process, transcode and analyse that material, and to generate outputs from it, solely to provide, secure and maintain the service for you.

What you publish

Publishing an edit, a listing or a profile on NinjaClips is different from submitting a file to the tools: it is meant to be seen. You keep every right you already have in it. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, transcode and publicly display it on NinjaClips and when we promote NinjaClips, for as long as you keep it published. Take it down and that licence ends, apart from copies already made for backups and for records we are required to keep.

You confirm that you made it, or that you hold the rights needed to publish it here, and that publishing it breaks no one else's rights. You are responsible for what you publish. We remove material on a valid notice — see copyright and takedowns — and we close accounts that repeatedly infringe.

The index and links to other platforms

The index records where work has been published and links to it. Media shown alongside those links is served by the platform it was published on, and following a link takes you to that platform, under its terms and its privacy policy. Rankings and statistics are our own measurements and are provided for information, without warranty of accuracy.

If you are a rights holder and want an entry removed, see our copyright and takedown policy.

Verifying your channels

You can verify a YouTube channel or TikTok account to show that it is yours. Verify only accounts you control. If you verify with YouTube by signing in with Google, you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and our privacy policy sets out what we read and keep.

Marketplace

Sellers may list only materials they created themselves and are entitled to sell. Listing an item confirms that you hold those rights. Sellers set their own prices and are responsible for the accuracy of their listings, for delivering what they describe, and for their own tax obligations.

Buyers receive the licence the seller offers with the listing. We provide the platform and handle payment; the contract for a purchased item is between buyer and seller. Where we take a platform fee, it is shown before you complete a sale. We may remove listings and suspend selling privileges where a listing appears to infringe rights or breach these terms.

Campaigns, for companies

These terms apply when a company ("you") pays NinjaClips for an edit campaign. Together with the proposal we send you, they are our agreement. By paying, you accept them.

  • What you buy. A set number of edits, each made by an editor we pick from the top editors already making edits of your title, posted on that editor's own TikTok account and kept up for at least 30 days. We sell edits, not views: the usual views in a proposal describe the editors' recent posts and are not a promise.
  • Price and payment. Each edit has a set price, based on the editor's usual views. Our fee is 30% on top of what the editors earn, shown in the proposal. You pay the full campaign price before any editor starts. Prices are in US dollars unless the proposal says otherwise and exclude VAT or similar taxes, added where the law requires.
  • Your clips. You send the clips the editors may use, or approve official clips we suggest. You confirm you own them or may let the editors and us use them for the campaign, and you give the editors and NinjaClips a non-exclusive licence to use them to make, post and keep up the edits and to show the posts in our report.
  • Drafts and approval. We check each editor's draft against the brief before you see it, and the editor fixes anything that misses it. You can then ask for one round of changes that stays within the brief. You have 48 hours to answer each edit; an edit you don't answer counts as approved. Nothing is posted until it is approved.
  • If you decline an edit. If an edit still misses the brief after our check and one fix, we replace that editor with one of similar reach at no extra cost, or refund that edit in full: you choose. If it follows the brief and you still decline it, that edit costs half: the editor is paid half their fee, we keep half our fee, and we refund you the other half.
  • If an editor can't deliver. If an editor drops out or misses the posting date, you choose: a replacement editor of similar reach at no extra cost, or a full refund of that edit.
  • Marked as an ad. Every post has TikTok's Paid partnership label switched on and says it is an ad. We don't run briefs that ask otherwise. You are responsible for any claims about your product in the brief.
  • Music. Posts use your own audio or tracks from TikTok's Commercial Music Library, as TikTok requires for branded content.
  • The report. Seven days after the last post goes live, you get a report: every post with its link and its views, likes and comments from TikTok's public counts.
  • The editors. Editors are independent creators, not our employees, and they keep the rights in their edits. You may share the posts on TikTok with credit; using an edit anywhere else, including as a paid ad, needs the editor's agreement and a separate fee. We don't share editors' contact details, and for 12 months after a campaign you agree to book editors you met through it only through NinjaClips.
  • Cancelling. You can cancel for a full refund until we send the brief to the editors. After that, the terms above for a declined edit and for an editor who can't deliver apply to each edit.
  • Liability. Our liability for a campaign is limited to what you paid for it. We are not liable for indirect loss or loss of profit. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
  • The rest. These terms sit alongside the rest of these Terms of Service and are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

Song campaigns, for artists and labels

These terms apply when an artist, a label or someone acting for them ("you") pays NinjaClips for a song campaign. Together with the plan we send you, they are our agreement. By paying, you accept them.

  • What you buy. A set number of edits that use your song, each made by an editor from our ranked editors, posted on that editor's own TikTok account with your song's official TikTok sound and kept up for at least 30 days. We sell edits, not views: the views in a plan describe the editors' recent posts and are not a promise.
  • Price and payment. Each edit has a set price, based on its editor's expected views: $1.00, $1.15 or $1.30 per 1,000 views by the editor's rank. Our fee is 30% on top of what the editors earn, and the plan shows the total. A song campaign starts at $1,500, and the total in the plan is the most you pay. You pay before any editor starts. Prices are in US dollars unless the plan says otherwise and exclude VAT or similar taxes, added where the law requires.
  • Your song. You confirm you own or control the rights in the song, or may let the editors and us use it, and you give the editors and NinjaClips a non-exclusive licence to use it in the edits, to post and keep up the edits on TikTok and to show the posts in our report. We never pay to use your song.
  • The plan. We send you the plan: the editors and the price of each edit. Nothing starts until you approve it and pay. Each editor makes their edit in their own style.
  • Our checks. We check every post: it uses your official sound, it is the editor's own, it is labelled as an ad and it stays up. A post that falls short is fixed, or replaced by an editor of similar reach at no extra cost, or refunded: you choose.
  • If an editor can't deliver. If an editor drops out or misses the posting date, you choose: a replacement editor of similar reach at no extra cost, or a full refund of that edit. The money for any edit that is not made comes back to you with its fee.
  • Marked as an ad. Every post has TikTok's Paid partnership label switched on and says it is an ad.
  • The report. Seven days after the last post goes live, you get a report: every post with its link and its views, likes and comments from TikTok's public counts, and what you paid per 1,000 views.
  • The editors. Editors are independent creators, not our employees, and they keep the rights in their edits; your rights in your song are unchanged. You may share the posts on TikTok with credit; any other use needs the editor's agreement and a separate fee. We don't share editors' contact details, and for 12 months after a campaign you agree to book editors you met through it only through NinjaClips.
  • Cancelling. You can cancel for a full refund until we send the brief to the editors. After that, the terms above for our checks and for an editor who can't deliver apply to each edit.
  • Liability. Our liability for a campaign is limited to what you paid for it. We are not liable for indirect loss or loss of profit. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
  • The rest. These terms sit alongside the rest of these Terms of Service and are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

These terms apply when you accept a paid edit through NinjaClips.

  • Who can take paid edits. You must be 18 or over, own the TikTok account you verified with us, and be on our paid promo list. You can say no to any offer.
  • You are independent. You take offers as a self-employed creator, not as our employee, and you handle your own taxes. Before your first payout we need your legal name, date of birth, country and payout details, and we report payments to the tax authorities where the law requires.
  • The offer. Each offer names the brand, the clips, the fee and the deadline. Saying "I'm in" is your agreement to that brief and these terms.
  • Your tier and your fee. Your fee for an edit of a brand's clips is set before you start, from your usual views and your tier on our editor ranking: tier 1 (ranks 1 to 350), $4 per 1,000 of your usual views, up to $2,000 an edit; tier 2 (ranks 351 to 1,764), $3 per 1,000 of your usual views, up to $1,000 an edit; tier 3 (every other ranked editor), $2 per 1,000 of your usual views, up to $500 an edit. Every such fee is at least $151. Your tier is set by your place on the ranking the day the offer is made. A song's edit is priced the same way at its own rates (see Song campaigns above).
  • Making the edit. Use only the clips in the brief, with the brief's audio or a track from TikTok's Commercial Music Library. Make it your way. Send us your draft before posting.
  • Approval. We check your draft against the brief first and may ask for one fix. The brand can then ask for one round of changes within the brief and has 48 hours to answer; no answer counts as approved.
  • Posting. Switch on TikTok's Paid partnership label, say it is an ad in the caption, tag the brand, post by the deadline, and keep the post up for at least 30 days.
  • Pay. The full fee for an approved, posted edit, paid on the first Friday at least 7 days after it goes live. If the brand declines an edit that followed the brief, you are paid half. An edit that still misses the brief after our check and one fix, or a post deleted within 7 days, is not paid.
  • Your rights. You keep the rights in your edit. The brand may share your post on TikTok with credit; any other use, including running it as an ad, needs your OK and a separate fee.
  • Checks. We check each post: it is yours, labelled and still up. Bought views, likes or followers end your place on the list.
  • What we share. The brand sees your TikTok handle, your post and its public stats, never your email or payment details.

Acceptable use

You may not use NinjaClips to:

  • submit, process, list or share unlawful, abusive or exploitative material;
  • submit material involving child sexual abuse, terrorism, or non-consensual sexual content;
  • infringe intellectual property, privacy, publicity or contractual rights;
  • submit material you do not hold the rights to;
  • bypass metering, billing, rate limits, security controls or account restrictions;
  • scrape, mirror or bulk-export the service, the index or its outputs;
  • interfere with the service, other users, our infrastructure or our providers.

We may throttle, block, remove content or suspend accounts where we reasonably believe the service is being misused or is exposing NinjaClips, its users, its providers or rights holders to legal, security or operational risk.

Our intellectual property

NinjaClips owns the service, its software, interface, systems, rankings, branding and documentation. These terms do not transfer ownership of any of it to you.

Billing and refunds

Prices, what each plan includes and any promotional terms are shown at checkout or on the pricing page at the time you buy. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled, and you can cancel at any time from your account or by emailing [email protected].

Credits are no longer part of NinjaClips, and plans do not include them. If you bought credits that you have not used, email [email protected] from the address on your account and we will refund them.

A new subscription can be refunded in full within 7 days of its first payment: email [email protected] from the address on your account. Statutory rights to cancel and to a refund are unaffected by anything in this section; to exercise them, or to raise any other billing issue, email [email protected]. Abuse of refunds, chargebacks or promotions may make an account ineligible for future refunds or access.

Availability

We aim to keep NinjaClips available and working, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Features may change, and we may modify, suspend or discontinue parts of the service. Where a change materially reduces something you have paid for, contact us and we will put it right.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, NinjaClips is provided as is. We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of data, or for claims arising from material you submitted, listed or published. Nothing in these terms excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

Indemnity

You agree to cover our reasonable losses and costs arising from your breach of these terms, from material you submit or list, or from your infringement of anyone else's rights.

Termination

You may close your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, that repeatedly infringes copyright, or where required by law. On closure your right to use the service ends; provisions that by their nature survive, including the rights warranty, the indemnity and the liability limits, continue to apply.

Data and privacy

Our privacy policy explains what we collect, why, how long we keep it, and the rights you have over it. It forms part of these terms.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date above always shows the current version, and material changes will be notified in the product or by email. Continuing to use NinjaClips after a change means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from them. If you are a consumer resident elsewhere in the UK or the EU, you keep the benefit of any mandatory protections of your home country.
